An Elixir library to interact with the Bitly API.
To use Exbitly, you first have to add it to your mix.exs dependencies.
defp deps do
[
{:exbitly, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
endAfter that, you have to create a config folder and a config.exs file inside that folder.
Then, pass the code below inside the config.exs file and add your token in it.
import Config
config :exbitly,
token: ""Without the config.exs file, you won't be able to shorten URLs.
You can use shorten/2 to shorten a URL.
Exbitly.shorten("bit.ly", "https://www.example.com")
# {:ok, "http://bit.ly/short_url"}
Exbitly.shorten("random", "https://www.example.com")
# {:error, %{
# "description" => "The value provided is invalid.",
# "errors" => [%{"error_code" => "invalid", "field" => "domain"}],
# "message" => "INVALID_ARG_DOMAIN",
# "resource" => "bitlinks"
# }}If you prefer exceptions, you can always use shorten!/2 instead of shorten/2.
Exbitly.shorten!("bit.ly", "https://www.example.com")
# {:ok, "http://bit.ly/short_url"}
Exbitly.shorten!("random", "https://www.example.com")
# ** (Exbitly.Error) An error occured while shortening the URL. Message: INVALID_ARG_DOMAIN - Description: The value provided is invalid.Copyright (c) 2022-present Alim Arslan Kaya.
